Ashkenazi Jews have taken nearly all gentile surnames, only an idiot like YOU thinks these ancient gentile surnames are Jewish ones…
“Myers is a(n) Dutch, English, and German origin surname. The English origin of the surname has multiple possible sources: Anglo-Saxon England, from the Old English word maire (originally maior) meaning “mayor”,[1] the Old French mire meaning “physician”, or the Old Norse myrr meaning “marsh”.[2] The German origin of the surname Myers has the meaning “steward or bailiff,” as in the magistrate of a city or town.”

Basically EVERY post you have on here is offensive, racist, uneducated or antisemitic.
Can Follers people ban you from this site for spamming insanity on here endlessly?
Neiltennant, you have a lot of nerve feigning butthurt and offense, after the troll-fest of hate you have perpetrated on this site.
Wasn’t he Scottish?
He definitely said in an interview that he had Scottish relatives – that’s why he likes impersonating us (not too well!).
